Cancer and Cell cycle - cyclins/cdk/mutated genes?

... about how cancer affects the cell cycle... 1) Does cancer actually speed up the individual phases of mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase) ... ie metaphase occurs 100x sooner following prophase in a cancer cell compared to a normal cell? or does cancer just increase the number ...

Polynculeation

well you may be observing a late telophase, when the nucleus has divided but cytokinesis has not taken place yet. or you may be observing the process of entosis - your cell with two nuclei might actually be a cell inside another cell

DNA and RNA Polomerase

actually that depends on the particular cell. some cells no not even decondense their chromosomes from telophase I to prophase II, but others certainly do, they form a nuclear envelope and the nuclei look interphase-like. of course, even when this does happen, the interphase ...

Question about chromosome replication before mitosis

... cytokinesis pinches the cell in two, you are left with two cells, each with 46 chromosomes. Thus, you do have 92 chromosomes/cell in anaphase and telophase, before cytokinesis is completed. Hope that clears things up a bit Andrei

i need some help.

... can't find it anywhere with the internet 1.why are spindle fibers important 2.sister chromatids and centromeres make up what 3.what phase follows telophase (i think it's cytokinesis) 4.what effect on the cell would there be if the s phase is not functioning properly 5.compare cytokinesis in an ...
